Sweet, well by the time I get to clinicals, they'll be a lot more approved sites. BTW I think I'd like to set up some rotations out of the ones affiliated with AUA. I've read we can do up to 12 weeks of this, does anyone have any experience with this? I'm thinking about Washington since I'd like to practice there after residency.

if you set up and the school agrees, i beleive it can be well above 12 weeks

I also plan on setting up my own rotations at certain places. God Willing. I know it can be done because my relative who goes to another school has done it a few times already. I dont think AUA would object either because it usually means they can send more students to the site.

Where do you plan on going? I think when I set up mine, I'm going to do like half and half. I want to rotate through Washington, especially UW. They have a really good sports medicine residency I'd like to get into. Their state isn't too tough on IMGs and its beautiful out there!

DOC, Ideally upstate NY. If not then in the NYC area at hospitals that are Greenbook but not necessarily AUA affiliated at the time.

Since when did the clinical program start charging $50 as a "processing fee" for the USMLE I registration?!?!

well yes, going to any school outside of the United States, US students are always going to have the advantage
